WDM and BDA driver

andreavb · 2007-10-03, 11:39

What is the difference between WDM and BDA driver? my new Analog Video Card (ATI eHome Wonder) has only a WDM driver and it results in poor audio quality out of sync and stuttering in TV2 (not tested with TVE3 server)...is this due to the fact that I have a WDM driver for my Capture card?

best regards

Hi,

BDA drivers only work for digital (DVB) cards. You won't get a BDA driver for your analogue card.

Afaik your ATI card is a hardware encoding card. So you may check the bitrate settings of the card. You should find those in the driver settings for your card. Also you may try different decoders to get better results...

Thank you for the explanation!!...so I have the latest (and correct) driver for the card, do I have to try to lower the bitrate of the audio streaming for the card? the video shows quite well...

I'll try with different settings...bye
